Fighting Game Community (FGC) General - The history of FGC drama, general FGC shenanigans, and directory to more eccentric individuals and subcultures within the community

[Dr. Ricearoni]

Not to mention the Inklings. They specifically tout them as 14 years old yet they sure paid a lot of attention to animate their hip swings in a not-so-subtle way. Really gotta wonder if Japan's aware of how they've been feeding the means for pedo groups to develop on a silver platter...

"Not to mention the inklings, for 14 year olds I sure like staring at their asses"

Have you considered you might be the pedo and not nintendo?

 

[Markorian]

I’m surprised Nintendo cares since a lot of their games appeal directly to pedophiles. Oh I’m sorry, all those scantily clad 7-year-old girls in Fire Emblem are actually 1,000 year old dragons.

Gonna get slightly autistic on you for a moment, but while fire emblem has always had the thousand year old little girl dragons, the only sexualized or scantily clad one was from awakening, over 2 decades after the series started, and that one was near universally despised by the fanbase.
Yes other games had a thousand year old dragon child, but they were actually treated like children by the other characters in the game, usually taking a fatherly or older sibling role towards them.

The reason thats the banner is because one of the mods, Maikky, banned all the hentai/porn posts a while ago. Most people I've seen in the FGC talking about this are sad to see EVO go. The people that want it to burn down are the ones thinking the FGC will go back to the arcade days where you'd see money matches, on stage shit talking, and all the other old entertaining stuff. I don't think it would ever return to that since a lot of the new blood wasn't around for it and seem more interested in sponsor/streaming money, but who knows.

Some men just want to watch the world burn.

I cannot wait for this to bite him in the ass.

I cannot wait for this to bite him in the ass.

He is one of the first people that I (and I'm sure others) thought of when all this talk of purging trash from the FGC started. Every day this cleansing continues and his name isn't brought up makes this look less like a sincere attempt to make things better and more like a cliqueish purging to anyone (both outsiders and veterans) who's been paying attention. Granted, there's still other names I'm surprised haven't gotten a callout yet but SonicFox is currently more prolific than them.

And I bet the furry community is covering for him by keeping the people with dirt on him quiet.

 

[Capsaicin Addict]

I know not everyone here is Max Dood's biggest fan, but watching his video over this... man, he looks hurt.

Maybe's he's a giant douche, but I can't take any joy in watching as something he loves burns to the ground.

Prolific member of multiple communities found to be harboring sex criminals, with allegations that all of those at the top were aware of it, if not actively participating? Yeah, the chances that he didn't at least know about something and said nothing is almost zero.

If this guy understood normal boundaries while touting his good boy points, he wouldn't be fucking gay and a fucking furry in the first place.

This is like someone going OH NO IM A GOOD CATHOLIC I DO WHAT THE CHURCH SAYS FOR CEREMONIES while ignoring child rape.

TBH I feel the same way. I've been following the fighting game scene since the early 2000s, and frankly it's disheartening and depressing to see it all go down in flames just because of a few assholes from every side.

You're not wrong, but good luck getting an underaged gay furry to publicly call out the man who is arguably the highest-profile member of the furry scene around. The last thing the furry community would want is people looking into the rampant pedophilia in the furry scene. Anyone who accused him of doing anything, or even being complicit, would get dogpiled (pun intended) immediately. It'll take someone with either no brains or a lot of balls (probably both) to run into that minefield.

Furries have no compunctions about throwing the fandom's reputation in the mud for the sake of clout. If SonicFox has diddled someone (or someone's dog), all we have to do is to wait until the victim (or the victim's owner) thinks they can get something out of it.

 

[Takayuki Yagami]

Anyone know if this banner for r/Kappa is in response to all the games companies pulling out of EVO? I kind of wonder what the average FGC player felt about this and the downfall of EVO in general. I know alot of just average people generally hate all the bullshit that comes with mainstream popularity and money, kind of wonder if there are alot of people that want to see this shit burn because it might also save their hobby.

They’ve had that one for a while. I think it alternates between that and that splash screen that shows up in the smash ultimate arcade mode.

Are you suggesting that there's a furry mafia?

 

[I can't imagine]

Are you suggesting that there's a furry mafia?

I mean, I'll grant haven't been involved, even tangentially, in the community in a long time, so take it with a grain of salt, but the community always tended to promote "self-policing" problem individuals over getting the normies involved. Which usually meant that pedo types were encouraged to keep it on the down low, not actually stop, but...well, yeah.

@Corn Flakes is correct in that, if someone went public with it, they'd get public support for it from furry Twitter and the like. In private, though? I'm not so sure. Shunning was a very real thing, even if it was never officially stated. I feel like it would be a real concern to someone making accusations.

But, like I say, my main involvement in the scene was in the 90's, before the fursuit types had completely taken over, and I haven't really had contact with people in the community in...7 or 8 years, I guess? And I was never really a "furry", just someone who was into anthropomorphic art, so I was always kinda an outsider.

Double whammy here, accusing one Melty Blood player of grooming her and another of being into guro and making nasty comments about how hot she'd be if she was dead.

Parents, don't let your kids hang out in hotel bathrooms unsupervised.

Not news. Whole Melty community is trash.

Dipstick/Kumubou was a nasty creep and gorefiend. Also weighs like 400 pounds and looks like your typical neckbeard.
Scott Tsai (iidxgold) was always trying to take pictures up girls' skirts. Was banned from several venues for it.
Choco (in quoted post) used to be teased for his "loli girlfriend". Nobody cared back then but suddenly they care now.
Kijae (Korean Melty player) used to bring loli doujins to the tournaments and trade them with people.
Mikey Pham (Crackpr0n) creeped on the female attendees and even sexually assaulted Mizuki. Mizuki was disliked by many people because he constantly shit on Melty and was just generally annoying so nobody cared about him or listened to his complaints about Mikey.
Arlieth (guy who ran MeltyBread) tried to sexually assault a girl at a tournament in 2016. Also tries to court any young female fans of his. Has sent lots of pictures of his dick to women in their teens/early 20s. He's almost 40.

I'm sure there's more but these are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head.

 

[Shaka Brah]

Are you suggesting that there's a furry mafia?

Actually kinda yeah. People will go to great lengths to defend each other there even for heinous crimes. The only way the zoosadist stuff got out is because someone was blackmailed into turning snitch. Tons of people not involved had to have known but kept it quiet according to what all came out afterwards. There's just no way otherwise.

Same with the tranny pedo who got outed recently. His "polyamorous" BF and GF absolutely knew this shit, because they were all cubfurs. But they pretended like him being arrested for possession was big news that nobody could have foreseen.

Every time I see this, it makes me a bit curious if people heard what was said correctly. Inklings aren't 14. It's stated they reach "maturity at 14." Plus I'm in the firm belief a player character with customization can be any age considering it's so open about what you can do with it.

Considering he knew about zoosadism but never spoke out about it, it wouldn't surprise me it's because he's one of them as well. SonicFox has reeked, figuratively and literally, and always has his closest friends hugging his nuts whenever they can.

What was his connection to that? I vaguely remember it in the context of him being in some kinda guro webring or something, but how close was he to the trashfire?

It isn't even real balancing anymore, it's all done to appease the watchers of tournaments rather than the actual players which is just surreal to me. A fighting game can be balanced between characters, but still not feel samey if the characters are done right and are different enough from each other, like in Virtua Fighter for example. On the other hand SFV balancing is done with this dumb "character rotation" where they buff character they want people to see more of and nerf those they don't want to see so it's a more fun watching experience.

In Tekken 7 "balancing" just means giving more combo damage. It's retarded, now every character has insane wall carry and big damage unga bunga moves which also crush. Characters are completely homogenized as are their movesets. King's ff+1 is a long range CH homing mid launcher that's safe on block. What use is there of giving him other moves at this point then? Lee was always really hard to play, but ever since 4 he was THE character if you wanted to talk about godlike wall carry. Now every character has godlike wall carry so there's really no reason for playing Lee, why do the same damage for a shit ton of more effort? In Season 3 how did they buff characters like 'zuya who had really shitty basic moves? Did they finally fix the trash hitbox of his 1 jab so he can actually control the flow of the match which will eventually lead to his crazy air juggles? Nah, they just gave him more combo damage. Absolute ass-backwards thinking.

Well not every character, but the fact that they did what they did what they did in season 3 is disturbing. Of particular concern is that they seem to just keep buffing the more visible characters and releasing top tiers. Bryan didn’t need the wall carry buffs he got in Season 3, or the buff he got recently to hatchet kick. Why did Hwo’s backlash get buffed to -9 even though Gigas, the worst character in the game, was the only one that could reliably punish it anyway? Why make electrics even harder to whiff punish? Why make Kazuya’s db4 hit grounded now when he already has batshit okizeme? Why does Jin have all the punishes, all the gimmicks, all the cheese strings, the best parry in the game, and the mishima tools on top of it? That game is messed up and it’s only going to get worse. Hopefully the FGC getting torched means Bamco’s esports projects go away and Harada gets put back on Tekken.
